Okay.... Check this out:
<a href="http://www.libertymeadows.com/oldnews.htm">http://www.libertymeadows.com/oldnews.htm</a>
It's the "Liberty Meadows" FAQ. In addition to being hilarious, it has tips
on how to send a submission to syndicate editors.
This link should be less entertaining, but just as valuable:
<a href="http://www.starvingartistslaw.com/industries/syndication.htm">http://www.starvingartistslaw.com/industries/syndication.htm</a>
All you need to know about submissions to the major comic strip
syndicates should be there.
Something to keep in mind: Most, if not all, will say "no" the first time.
It's heartbreaking, but you have to keep chugging (at your work, not
at a beer!) and keep submitting. I got turned down zillions of times
before I finally sold a Kirby (vacuum cleaners, not pink puffballs). If
I quit at the first school district that turned me down, I wouldn't have a
teaching job right now!
Dare to believe! Fight! Ganbare! Hoo-yah! Use the Force! Victory or
death! Phasers on stun! Right back at ya! Power to the people! You
da MAN!
...and stuff....
